Omniseal Solutions Announces Major Expansion Of Rulon® Fluoropolymers Online Shop

Polymer Solutions Low Friction & Wear

Developed in the early 1950s, the Rulon® material is a proprietary family of PTFE-based fluoropolymer compounds that was used in industrial applications due to its extended long life and low friction advantages. The polymer solution is now being used in other industry applications such as aviation, space, energy and life science.

As the demand for wear and friction control solutions continues to grow, Omniseal Solutions’ e-shop enables customers to source the exact size for their application without long lead times. Offering a broader range of rods, tubes, sheets, and tapes, the expansion further supports those who need a quick turnaround, reduced downtime, and cost-effective procurement for maintenance and new projects.

Why use Rulon® solutions? The materials are engineered and manufactured for extreme conditions and deliver the following technical benefits.
• Extended Wear Life: Designed for continuous, non-lubricated service in harsh environments
• Low Coefficient of Friction: Minimizes energy loss and prevents stick-slip in dynamic systems.
• Chemical Compatibility: Performs reliably in aggressive media, including steam and wet conditions.
• Versatile Formulations: Available in multiple grades (e.g., Rulon® LR, J, 641, AR, and 142) that are tailored for specific needs such as FDA compliance, soft shaft compatibility, or high-load stability
• Manufacturing Versatility: Can be created using various processes: machined, molded, extruded, skived, stamped, and hot and cold formed with a wide range of configurations (bearings, piston rings, tapes, tubes, rods, sheets, cup seals, and wear components)
